We try to ignore the histories of the Native Americans because we haven't grown up enough yet to admit they were not just a bunch of wild savages whose lands we were meant to take thru' "manifest destiny."

Do you have a mouse in your pocket?

No he's just happy to see a petroglyph depicting a nova. I'd like to add that native americans where already known to depict stars to begin with, so I would think it ain't a big leap from assuming that they would actually remember which stars are in what position. The individuals that where interested in stars anyway.
